If you live in a big town or city, you won't be able to shop from honesty boxes as we can at this time of year. They are in hedgerows, at the end of garden paths and of course, at the side of farm gates. They are no cheaper than the supermarket but it means I can put the money into the hands of the grower. Yesterday in
Fowey, in
some one's garden we saw tomatoes for sale at 50p a bag. I love tomatoes and eat them like sweets but we had enough left for lunch today.
I chopped one onion,
chili and garlic clove (all out of my garden) cooked them in a spoonful of olive oil, then added the chopped tomatoes and cooked through. I picked out the skin as I'm fussy!
It made just enough for lunch. Whilst cooking I also cooked a small handful of
spaghetti and stirred it through the sauce.
Simply served with a
smidge of
Parmesan. Honesty box tomato sauce and pasta.
